I tested it and all was fine. I just don't understand why anyone would allow 777 even tempoarily; perhaps some servers require it but this seems nuts.
Question: Why are all the image files created by IH in this bmz_cache directory defaulting to 666. I've changed them to 644 and the folders to 755. but I think when it creates new files they will probably be 666. So the routine is that one needs to remember to track them down each time new images are added?
PS- What is the batch export process in Firefox you mention? Is it part of the developer's toolbar?
